PZ Myers wrote: "We all screw up â€” whatâ€™s important is that we recognize it and try to better ourselves." Says the man who publicly accuses people of being serial rapists, based on nothing more than hearsay, won't listen to any criticism of his actions, and doesn't believe he's done anything wro...

Once, a couple of years ago, I was asked matter-of-factly by a woman to certify to the her daughter's virginity. If you don't mind me asking, how could that be possible? As I understand it, the hymen can be broken even in virgins. And sex can also be possible (certainly anal or oral sex, but also v...

Someone should tell the different types of feminist that feminism just means equality I'm sure that all the different kinds of feminists will be relieved that Aronra has weighed-in with his pronouncement that there is only one definition of feminism, and he personally knows what it is. The feminist...

I think you'll find that all men are at risk, and the men in AVFM are naturally doing what they believe is in their best interests.

the belief that men and women should have equal rights and opportunities While the first definition could be equated to anti-sexism[/quote] The problem is, I've never once met a feminist who was concerned about men's rights. And it extremely rare that you will ever find one who even acknowledges th...

And now for something completely different.

Some classic posing.

Preferring to play characters of one gender or another is sexism. So you're saying there's nothing wrong with sexism then? Gender bias IS sexism. Forget about bias. What about gender preference? You are assuming there is bias. there is a problem. This hasn't been demonstrated. People play whatever ...

Has this dude never heard of things like "manslaughter", "1st degree murder", "negligent homicide", and so on and so forth? All the evidence suggests that SJWs have never heard of anything that we would associate with "civilization". "Law" What's that? "Police" Who ever heard of them? What do you d...

Anyway, PZ said he wants equality and his opponents want a churchlike hierarchy? He actually fucking said that??? Ha. You got it exactly backwards, Peez. We're not the ones enforcing conformity through silencing, shaming, callout culture and suppression of free speech. Silly liar. I'm surprised he ...

I don't believe that Dawkins has made any deals with her!

demanding that the motherfucker take back what he said, how is that not denying him the right to express his opinion?! It's like the freedom which the Catholic Church provided for people during the crusades. Either you recant your beliefs, or you are burnt alive at the stake. It's your free choice.

I follow Dawkins' twitter feed and he's had more than a few quips about how he's being lambasted not so much for what he said, but for words he never said, which the SJW brigade is busily stuffing into his mouth. To them, what you "say" is whatever they are able to imagine you to be saying. For exa...

Relativism isn't absolutely true.

Myers wrote:Science has to be answerable to public interest

So if the public consider it to be in their interests that science become pseudo-science, then science should make itself into pseudo-science.

Brilliant.

Peezus actually accused Dawkins of sounding like someone from NAMBLA - an organization that promotes the legalization of child molestation. With all their accusations of rape apologism and pedophilia apologism they are rapidly running out of piles of shit to throw at people, and are destroying the ...

SoylentAtheist wrote:I suspect he may think that a good chunk are in fact misogynists.

No doubt he thinks the majority of women are misogynists too.

Damn this misogyny - it's so persuasive that even women can't resist it!

He [Myers] says he doesn't know, but he knows that it is not a small percentage [of sexists/misogynists]. That is an extremely broad range. He could be talking about the proportion of "Greys" (evil aliens) which have infiltrated the human population. Or the percentage of witches. He is living in a ...

Nietzsche wrote:No shepherd and one herd!

Five words, but more genius than Myers can conceive of.

Dave Sim calls it "The Merged Void". Google it.

His expectation that his mate would not have to work if she didn't choose to made him sexist beyond redemption. It's got to the stage where thinking for yourself is now sexism. For a person to think for themselves, quite openly and provocatively, is something so horrifying and shocking that it must...

He probably didn't rape anyone at all, but is only saying that he did so as to fit in.

Huehuehue wrote:Why is she describing it in her comments as a "rape defense fund"?

Because 2 + 2 = 5

I've met crazy people before. If something sounds reasonable then it's of no value to them, but if something sounds batshit crazy then they'll accept it without question. That's what insanity means.

Atheism doesnt entail humanism - just is very logically compatible. Isn't humanism also compatible with belief in the existence of a God? It all depends what kind of God it is. If a God promotes humanism then theism would be compatible with humanism. Therefore I try to reject those Ideas that belit...

They are, after all, called "cons". The clue is in the name.

Buyer beware.

Does PZ know all five other different people? Yes, he knows them because he has been told they exist, and so he knows of their existence. He also knows they are trustworthy because a person he trusts to be trustworthy trusts that the report of the existence of the five others is trustworthy. And th...

I had to share with you this comment I found on Thunderf00t's latest video, which sums it up nicely: PZ Meyers raped me in 1993, I think, I mean he coerced meï»¿ into not being able to not consent - wait, was that in 2009? Is the broccoli still cooking? I do know he did fill someone's wine glass up ...

Ä uest wrote:what power does conference organizers and speakers hold over attendees?

Women are naturally turned-on by power. It's a biological thing, and detracts from their ability to consent.

Power equals money, influence, status, etc.

Myers writes: It was the eroticism of intellectual stimulation. Really? Nothing to do with the fact that he is in a position of relative wealth and power, and has proven himself to be a manipulable man by fact of his years of marriage? I really don't think "Intellectual stimulation" would work as a ...

Sorry, I mistook "Online Harassment" for somebody's name.

I think I was being too obscure for my own good. :-)

"Online harassment has completely taken over Melody Hensley's life"

Who is this "Online Harassment" guy? Is this her new boyfriend?

And why are these "bad guys" always so popular with the ladies?

Cold wrote:3 years of someone's life spent in jail after their wife commits suicide.

Yet another reason for staying single.

My non-lawyer understanding makes it out to be open and shut and PZ having lawyers that would tell him to immediately retract. I believe that Myers regards himself to be above the law. Even if he knew that what he was doing was unlawful, he would still do it. That's his prerogative of course - sinc...

It's probably taking longer than expected to add up all the damages.

Speaking of privilege, Plato once wrote:

"I thank God that I was born Greek and not a barbarian, a freeman and not a slave, a man and not a woman; but above all, that I was born in the age of Socrates."

Rebecca Watson writes: "I'm white, able-bodied, straight, American, cisgendered, and middle class. Incredibly privileged." I don't think I've ever met an artist, which would include thinking people, who would regard those things as "privilege". I've visited Florida, and I've also been into a Walmart...

Rebecca Watson writes: "I've shown my critic is a sex offender." Hasn't anyone ever explained to Watson what a logical fallacy is? Even if the fellow was once a sex offender, or a murderer, or a bank robber, or whatever, it doesn't mean he can't ever speak the truth. I can just imagine Dawkins summi...

Shermer is an "unbeliever" and therefore is not truly human. Justice is only for humans.

I'm convinced that's what they think, since actions speak louder than words.

Myers writes: I worry that this is the end of a lot of good things Some woman writes to Myers, saying that she desperately wants to remain anonymous. Myers thinks, "I know what I'll do.
